2014

Moore stated the following regarding Common Core on her website:

“ Standards and guidelines for education are not necessarily a bad thing but that is not what Common Core is really about, that is only it's smokescreen. Common Core is a Federal initiative and platform to advance an agenda, an agenda to nationalize our education system. Keeping all decisions affecting the education of Rutherford County students at the local level is of utmost importance to me and should be to all parents and educators. I do not agree with allowing the Federal Government to take over our education system & curriculum. Setting "common" standards that do not allow for teaching the individual child, not to mention that put our good teachers under attack, taking away their ability to teach with creativity is just plain wrong. Common Core is in fact a threat to our teachers as it puts more and more "automation" into the teaching process. In reality it is a dumbing down of our children's education. My children are NOT COMMON, are yours? The more Federal involvement in our education process, the less and less you as a parent or as a teacher will have in guiding and educating those most precious lives. The data mining that goes along with Common Core is a despicable encroachment of our privacy and civil liberties. It is unacceptable, period. I have spent the last two years tirelessly researching Common Core and speaking to groups across the state about common core and textbook issues. Ask yourself what other candidates running for this seat can claim that level of expertise and understanding. It is with much disappointment that I have watched and listened to our current School Board members taking a public position in favor of Common Core. We have got to start fighting for the sanctity of our children's education, not tucking our tails and ducking because it's too controversial, or not the way to garner favor with the establishment. ” —Lisa Moore (2014)
